Remarks:
very nice Ledaig.
one must like sulfur thou.

Overall I rate this Whisky:

  • Nose:
    Strong start. intense Sherry flavor with a sulfur note that comes through. Many dried and red fruits, some berries, Vanilla and a hint of chocolate and over all the smell of smoke. quite complex imho for that age.

  • Taste:
    strong start with many smokey flavors combined with the red and dry fruits from the Sherry cask. Here the sulfur note is less noticeable. Very full mouthfeel.

  • Finish:
    here I get the same flavors like the once on the palate but a bit softer and without the sulfur. But it lasted quite long.
